Spatial decay of electromagnetic waves from hypervelocity impact plasmas

R Lau, N Lee, S Elschot - International Journal of Impact Engineering, 2024 - Elsevier
Due to the high kinetic energy of impactors in space, hypervelocity impacts on spacecraft
can ablate spacecraft material and produce plasmas. These plasmas have been observed …

Analysis of kidney stones using Single Pulse Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (SP-LIBS) to determine the concentrations of elements

SA Raheem, SA Habana, AH Ali - Journal of Optics, 2024 - Springer
The chemical structure of kidney stones was studied using single pulse laser-induced
breakdown spectroscopy (SP-LIBS). This approach presents the use of a high-resolution …

Long-Pulse Laser-Induced Cavitation: A Race Between Advection and Phase Transition

X Zhao, W Ma, J Chen, G Xiang, P Zhong… - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2023 - arxiv.org
Vapor bubbles generated by long-pulsed laser often have complex non-spherical shapes
that reflect some characteristics (eg, direction, width) of the laser beam. The transition …

Investigation of Energy Transport during Hypervelocity Impacts in an Ambient Fluid

S Islam, A Narkhede, K Wang - AIAA SCITECH 2024 Forum, 2024 - arc.aiaa.org
When a hypervelocity impact occurs, the target rapidly deposits energy into its surrounding
gas and the target. At the point of contact, extremely strong shock waves are released into …
